How do you setup an external serial modem?

#1 Post by jacatone »

Have an external serial modem and wanted to know how to set this thing up. I've noticed PL automatically finds an internal hardware modem using the Probe feature. Does the same hold true for an external one? Thanks.

Before an external modem can be detected you'll probably need to blklist the internal.

Run: pmodemdialog from a terminal and attach the resulting file with your response.

This is in the wrong forum anyways Flash. It should be in "hardware" >> dialup.

I guess I wasn't clear. I don't have an internal hardware modem installed. Just want to setup a US Robotics external 56k serial modem I have.

Hi...

I'm wondering if the internal modem Puppy is finding is actually the external. What TTY address is Puppy finding it under?
